Solution(By Examveda Team)
Soil materials deposited by glaciers are known as Moraine and Till.A moraine is a material left behind by a moving glacier. This material is usually soil and rock. Rivers carry along all sorts of debris and silt that eventually builds up to form deltas, glaciers transport all sorts of dirt and boulders that build up to form moraines.
Till is derived from the erosion and entrainment of material by the moving ice of a glacier. It is deposited some distance down-ice to form terminal, lateral, medial and ground moraines.
